Maya cried and ran to Lilith's residence. She wanted to ask for comfort, but she didn't expect that there were two rows of servants standing in front of the gate, all wearing sacred blue-striped white-bottomed robes. This spectacle must have come from Yimil's big light bulb. up.

She quickly wiped her face, pretending nothing happened, and ran over with an innocent smile: "Lilith! I'm here to play with you!"

The attendants recognized that this was the daughter of the Northern Demon King, and all bowed down to salute her.

Lilith heard her voice, and hurriedly ran out from the back room to meet her, [Maya, why are you here alone again, are you afraid that your father will teach you a lesson? 】

Maya curled her lips: "I'm not afraid of him!"

A smile spread across Lilith's eyes, and she took her hand and led her into the room, "It's okay...with Yimil here...the Dark God won't come."

"why?"

【Because His Majesty ordered that Camillo should keep at least 500 meters away from Yimil, and if he violated the order, his dragon would be deprived of food for one day. 】

Maya had never heard such a strange order before, so she burst out laughing: "Ling Ke is clever, he can follow the smell to find the granary, so he won't starve himself."

The two walked hand in hand to the courtyard at the back. The trees in the courtyard were well pruned, the cherry blossoms in full bloom were brightly colored, the ground was covered with cobblestones, surrounded by tall beige walls, everything was built with reference to the style of the heavens, divided It was quiet and peaceful outside.

There is a stump-shaped stone table under the flower tree in the center of the courtyard. Yimil held his chin with one hand, frowned slightly, and focused on the cipher text on the stone table.

Maya asked Lilith in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Lilith sighed softly, and told Maya with sympathy: [We have no clues about the ruins so far, and Yimil himself is under a lot of pressure, so he came to me to accept the task, and wanted to get a high amount in a short time. points. 】

"Ren... tasks?" Maya blinked curiously, "Is it fun, I want to help too! Let me accept a few tasks too!"

Yimil raised his head when he heard the sound, and seeing Maya coming, he smiled apologetically, "Your Highness, I was rude for not going out to greet you." He gracefully bowed and saluted Maya. Open the chair.

Maya sat down flattered, lowered her head and crossed her fingers, and whispered, "Since you're in the southern region, don't call me a princess. Besides, I'm not wearing a dress. I'm a little shy with your appearance."

Yimil smiled and helped her pour a cup of sakura tea, and said in a warm voice: "Even if your highness is not wearing a fancy dress, you are still a rich man, and we men should handle killing and killing. You are the princess of the northern border. Don't meddle in dangerous things."

Maya puffed up her mouth, thinking that it was so, anyway, she was not allowed to accept the task.

Lilith touched her head and comforted her: 【I won't agree either, because I don't know what kind of request Gaia will make. If the task is too harsh, I'm afraid you will be in danger. 】

After being taught by two people in a row, Maya was discouraged.

She supported her head with both hands, blowing on the pink petals in the cup, and looked at the ciphertext boredly.Originally, Camillo didn't allow her to touch the ciphertext, so she didn't have a chance to read it carefully. Today, she looked at the above text, and her heart beat a little faster for no reason: "Why do you feel... a little familiar?"

Yimil looked up at her, and seeing the little girl staring intently at the cipher text, he couldn't help chuckling: "Could it be that you've seen this kind of text elsewhere?"

"No... not words," a vague memory burst out from the depths of her mind, Maya quickly took out the book of shadows from her pocket, and quickly flipped to the last page, "Yes! It's here! I always feel that the spell on this page It's a little strange, the rituals and texts are very ancient, as if they have been dusty in another world for a long time; and this cipher text feels very similar to me, as if...they came from the same place."

"Oh?" Yimil asked carefully, "What are the similarities?"

"Energy, they all have an ancient and stable energy, but... I'm not sure, I'm not very good at reading the energy of objects." Maya shrugged.

Lilith wanted to verify Maya's words. She put her two hands on the cipher text and the incantation respectively, closed her eyes, and a picture gradually appeared in front of her eyes...

[A huge square stone tablet, engraved with words, is a spell of witchcraft, very old... like the remaining pages of the book of shadows, and then on the stone tablet, on it...]

Lilith drew the shape of the stele with her hand, and described it very clearly, as if she was standing in front of the stele.

[There are also words engraved on the stele, negative energy, and very powerful,] She stood on tiptoe, as if trying to see the content above the stele, 【That kind of power is stopping me, I can’t read the words clearly, but That energy is very similar to ciphertext. 】

Yimil's face became more and more stunned. He couldn't believe the witch's power. Lilith really "saw" the stone tablet on the ruins?

"Lilith and I feel exactly the same," Maya smiled hopefully, "It's not that simple, this page of spells must be engraved in the same place as the cipher text, and we have another clue!"

Yimil still frowned and shook his head, and analyzed: "The ruins we are looking for are the eyes of the Book of Century, and there will inevitably be many obstacles. If the spells of witchcraft are really engraved on the ruins, how can ordinary people Get that page of spells, now we only know that Sobika and Roger have been to that ruin, how can others..."

Lilith tugged at his cuff, lowered her voice, and told him softly, "This Book of Shadows was given to her by Sobika."

Yimil was taken aback for a moment, what? !This kid actually obtained the Book of Shadows from Sobika. When did this happen?How did Sobika sneak into the Demon Realm without anyone noticing?

Maya blinked and asked, "Who is Sobika?"

Lilith turned her head to look at her, with a hesitant face, 【She...is the old grandmother who sold this book to you, she is the mother of Dark God, your...grandmother. 】

Maya's heart was beating wildly, and she was overjoyed: "Grandma! I have a grandma? I actually have a grandma. So I have other relatives!" She called her grandma three times in a row, jumped off the chair excitedly, and wanted to tell This is good news for everyone, but within a few steps, the soles of my feet were hanging in the air.

Yimil held her back by the collar, pressed her on the chair, and made a "shh" gesture to her.

"Listen to me first, you'd better not tell anyone about this, especially Camillo..."

Maya interrupted him: "Why do you care about me?"

Yimil was not angry, but smiled casually. He touched Maya's head and knelt down on one knee to match her height, "That was a long time ago. The most recent conflict was at When you were just full moon, the dragon clan led ten giant dragons to invade your father's capital, and the city of King Aerys was almost destroyed."

"Dragon clan..." Maya grew up in the Demon Realm since she was a child, and she is full of strangeness to this word.

Yimil said calmly: "Your father is from the dragon family, so is Kylia, and you, of course, are too. But the same family does not mean that they will live in harmony. For Camillo, although Roger and Sobika are his parents, He is also an enemy, and even an invader who once attacked the Demon Realm. With his temper, if he knew that you took Sobika's things, he might burn this book, and then kill the Dragon Clan to settle the score."

Maya was startled, she carefully clutched the book in her hand, and muttered, "Why... that old lady doesn't look like a bad person."

"You know, it's still too little." Yimil's lips curled into a helpless smile, "But it's not necessarily a bad thing, simple people are often happier."

Maya looked at him blankly, not knowing what to say.

"Lilith..." Yimil stood up, his eyes were deep and oppressive, "I was already prepared to fight to the death, but before accepting the task, I want to ask you to make a wish again. Once, I wondered where the spell originally stood."
